Are you surprised that Banran didn't mention us to you before coming here?the old man asked. 【 】

No... I shook my head, that girl is crazy, it would be nice if she could bring me here, how could she explain it clearly to me.

Haha, it's conceivable.Making friends with her is not something ordinary people can bear.The old man laughed and said: My name is Liao Youxuan, you are Fanran's friend, if you don't mind, just call me Grandpa Liao along with her.

uh, good.

Fanran hasn't been here for a long time, why did he come here with you, a descendant of Basuo?Elder Liao asked curiously.

It's the old way...uh, it's the Zhang Shoudao you mentioned.We went through some things and went back to the Five Elements Temple to rest.The old Taoist said he was going to do some business, so he asked me to take her out for a walk.I explained that in front of the old man in front of me, I always felt a little cramped, and for a while, I couldn't even speak clearly.

What did you experience together?Old Liao became even more curious, and asked: What Wuxing and Basuo did together is not a trivial matter, can you tell me about it?

It's ok, do you want to listen to it from the beginning or halfway...it's pretty long anyway.

Do you think climbing directly from the middle of the mountain is more fun than starting from the bottom of the mountain?The old man smiled and said: I have nothing to do now, I still have a lot of time.

Well, let’s start from the beginning... Let’s start with a piece of jade pendant left by my father, that piece of jade...

It took a long time to tell the whole story.Although in reality, it didn't take many days, but there are too many stories in these days.

I'm not a very good storyteller, so I told it while thinking, and it took me a whole afternoon to finish the story.

No wonder... After listening to my narration, the old man muttered to himself.

What's wrong?I asked.

Oh, forgot to tell you.Although I don't practice, I still do some research on these.I have spent a lot of time and energy building a machine that can monitor the energy movements of this world.

So powerful... I was very surprised.

This is nothing, just like humans monitor the amount of sea water.The old man smiled modestly and said: It just takes some time.A few days ago, the machine's monitoring results showed that the entire world's... oh, that's not an accurate word.Due to the limitation of manpower and material resources, this machine can only monitor our Huaxia region.And a few days ago, the machine detected that the energy of the entire Huaxia region rose in a steady curve.

What do you mean?

It means that within the scope of China where we are, the density of energy has increased.At first, I was still very strange, and I used my contacts to find some practitioners to ask.However, they didn't realize it, let alone the reason for this vision.

Uh...you mean, this has something to do with the underworld?

Perhaps, because from the timing point of view, it is a coincidence.The old man nodded. He took out a pen from his jacket pocket, moved the paper prepared on the coffee table to him, and first drew a curve that gradually declined, saying: This line is from the past ten years. Monitoring results.China's energy has been decreasing, and with the development of the times, this speed is getting faster and faster.But in the past few days...

After the gradually declining curve, the old man lifted the tip of the pen upwards to draw a fairly obvious upward line: the energy began to increase, and according to the curve, the speed was accelerating.

This is a good thing should be.I said.

According to the theory of practitioners, if the energy of the world increases, their practice will be easier, because they can absorb more energy molecules and fuse with themselves.You should understand that matter is made up of molecules, and the larger they are, the more things can attach to them.Therefore, the closer the molecules in the practitioner's body are to the energy molecules, the stronger their power will be.

Molecule, where did you hear this?

Looking at the serious expression of the old man when he drew the curve, and thinking about what he said before, a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind: Grandpa Liao, you must not be the physicist that the old man talked about!

He mentioned me to you?Elder Liao also looked a little surprised.

Well, if he didn't meet the second physicist who studies spiritual beings, it must be you.I was a little excited, because the physicist in the old Taoist mouth was an ordinary person, but he gave the simplest and most direct explanation of practice.Even the old Taoist never forgot his explanation, which shows that it is very reasonable.

Therefore, some things are not unexplainable by science, but our explanation method sometimes does not use science, but technology.Science spawned technology, but they are completely different.

When technology can't do it, we always say: Oh, this is not scientific.

In fact, it is because we have not pursued the essence.

Hehe, I didn't expect him to still remember me after such a long time.Mr. Liao put down his pen very happily, and asked: Did he say anything else?

No more, just tell me what you said about the relationship between practice and molecules.I think what you said makes sense.

Hahaha... Mr. Liao laughed happily.

I looked at the curve on the coffee table, and asked the question again: If the increase in energy is really related to the underworld, it means that the lock of the land not only sealed the underworld, but also took China's energy...uh...

I'm kind of stuck because I don't know what to say.

I understand what you mean, you want to say that the so-called fief lock is a tool that causes China's energy to gradually decrease.However, its method is to extract and consume, or not to send it to the outside world.

Uh, that's pretty much it.What's more strange to me is that if the reduction of energy is not good for practitioners, why did my ancestor 2000 years ago arrange to mend the sky and seal the land?

This is indeed something that needs to be considered, but I think the key point is what is the so-called heaven and earth.The earth may represent the underworld, so what about the sky?Mr. Liao picked up the pen again, and first drew a horizontal line: this represents the underworld.

He drew another horizontal line: This represents the world we live in, because according to what you said, the underworld may be hidden deep underground, or it may be a world compartment under the surface, which is somewhat similar to a virtual parallel world.

Then, he drew a semi-arc line, completely wrapping the bottom: this arc is the sky we know now.That is to say, including the atmosphere and the position of the ozone layer.

In the end, Mr. Liao clicked a few times outside the arc: further out, it can be counted as the sky.Because the ancients paid attention to the universe, their view of the universe may be our limited world view.

What do you mean?

In other words, the sky of the ancients may have been the cosmic space beyond the atmosphere.Old Liao explained.

ah?This is unlikely, could it be that the ancients could leave the earth?Even gods...

I didn't finish my sentence, because what I said afterwards was like slapping myself in the face.

Mr. Liao seemed to have understood my thoughts, he laughed and said: In ancient mythology, the universe was created by Pan Gu.This myth is actually contradictory, because what Pangu opened up is probably just a small world.

If we look at it according to the origin of the myth, Pangu was born from an unknown egg and had an ax as a weapon in his hand.The inside of the egg is dark, and there is nothing, which is somewhat similar to the explosion origin of the universe, which is born from nothingness.But the key problem is that Pangu split the world, and then it will support the world to grow every day.

How to say in the myth, oh, Pangu is among them, changing nine times a day, the god is in the sky, and the holiness is in the earth.The sky is ten feet higher every day, the earth is ten feet thicker every day, and Pangu is ten feet longer every day, so it is eight thousand years old.The sky is extremely high, the earth is extremely deep, and Pan Gu is extremely long.Later there were three emperors.Counting begins at one, stands at three, completes at five, prospers at seven, and stands at nine, so heaven and earth are ninety thousand miles away.

According to the current research, the li of the ancients was shorter than the modern ones almost most of the time.But what is the concept of 4000 miles? Even if ten miles is one mile in our present, the distance between the sky and the earth is more than [-] kilometers.You have to know that today's earth satellites generally have a low-Earth orbit at an altitude of several hundred kilometers.This altitude has exceeded the envelope of the atmosphere.

So the height of four thousand miles is completely different from our understanding of the earth.And if the two concepts of the extremely high number of days and the extremely deep number of earth are the same, then calculated with modern scientific and technological measurement methods, the thickness of the earth is somewhat close to the depth of the earth in ancient mythology.

From this, we can draw an answer. If the myth is not completely fictional, then the sky in ancient mythology and the sky we know are two concepts.Sometimes I wonder whether the so-called sky refers to other planets that are very close to the earth.But it is mentioned in the myths that the sky is clear and light, which obviously does not match the planet composed of pure matter.

You mean... Liao Lao's concept of mythology has completely confused me.In a daze, I only understood one thing, that is, the heaven and earth in ancient times are not the same as the heaven and earth we talk about.

What I mean is that the so-called mending the sky may be mending the layer of sky that ordinary people cannot see or understand.

Just like the underworld may be hidden underground or a fictional space in the stratum.Mr. Liao once again drew a horizontal line between the star point and the atmosphere, and between the atmosphere and the surface of the earth: the so-called sky may be located in these two positions.

This... I find it a bit shocking, because what I heard is completely different from what modern science can explain.

The ancients practiced and talked about ascending to heaven and becoming immortals.In modern records, there have been many strange incidents in which high-altitude aircraft suddenly disappeared in the clouds.If you look at it comprehensively, I think... Mr. Liao made a point on the horizontal line between the atmosphere and the surface: the so-called sky is probably hidden in this position, not too far from the ground.

From this point of view, the legend of Kuafu chasing the sun and Dayi shooting the sun in ancient mythology is easy to understand.Because the sky is not far away from us, the sun is not far away from us either.

If it is the sun recognized by modern times, it is more than 1 million kilometers away from the earth.With such a long distance, no matter how tall and how tall Kuafu and Dayi are, it is impossible for the earth to withstand their trampling.
